Shattered Steel ingame video #2

Here is more ingame video from Shattered Steel, the Interplay/Bioware mechwarrior clone from 1996.
This time I managed to record when I was hit by a nuke, showing off the terrain deforming the game engine has.

The video was captured using DosBox 0.70, which my computer is a bit too weak for, so I apologize for the low fps and all the stuttering.

does this game run in vista without dosbox?

[fisk0]

@amyrulez64 There is an Windows 95 version which might work. I only own the DOS version, so I have to run it in DOSBox, but it's possible that the Win95 version would work in Vista if you set it to run in Windows 95 compatibility mode and "Run as administrator" (almost all old games require that since they usually store all user data in the install folder instead of the user profile), unless the game use some DirectDraw routines that does not work in modern DirectX versions, like Shogo does.

i'm sorry, I only own the older DOS version, which you can't run in modern Windows using any compatibility mode at all without using DosBox. I haven't encountered that problem in DosBox.

love this game

Is it the one where the shuttles are evacuating colonists? I think there's a bug in the win-version, the shuttles never leave. If you got the same problem I recommend killing all the enemies so you don't get a bad conscience and then cheat your way past the level. Remember the code is: IMOUTTAHERE
